    This is the big unwritten story and one I suspect will raise its head over the next season. Mel has had to do some juggling and probably spend money he didn’t want to, but there has never been one iota of doubt that he is solvent and committed to DCFC’s wellbeing. What about the other clubs ? What about their sugar daddies ? 

    I saw earlier that one of the US potential investors was the guy who owns Carnival Cruises .. hummm well they will have taken a pasting in the last 18 months. What was small change 2 years ago has a different value today. 

    I can’t agree with you about Morris being committed to Derby’s wellbeing.He has not even been paying all the running costs,hench we now owe HMRC money.Surely the larger the debt the less attractive an investment we become! A really astute business man /buyer would be waiting for us to go into liquidation to pick us up on the cheap with a lot less debt.

    Noticed some people having a go .

    We are Derby fans and we should stick together and back the Club 

    Its easy to be derogatory about the owners in this situation but the real enemy is the EFL 

    They are an absolute joke of an institution and don’t get me started on Steve Gibson and Wycombe Wanderers

    Are you for real.Never read such rubbish.

  3. Yes he’s a rich man and good luck to him.Is he rich enough to run a football club as the sole investor? NO.look at some of the other “sole investors” Phil Davies ,Elliot Short,Jack Walker,Sir Jack Hayward.Eventually they or their families said enough is enough and cut ties with football.why would anyone in their right mind blow all their money on a football club? Obscene players wages plus perks and agents fees have ruined football.I don’t blame MM for trying to sell.

    A bit harsh mate, you can’t group him with the two individuals Mel has been negotiating with recently. I’d definitely have him back as part of a consortium. It’s a matter of opinions though.

    You obviously don’t know him !!

    Putting his own money in - it’s probably down to Sam Rush actually but MM should have trusted him.

    Have you missed the word NOT out in relation to rush?

    Because they've played so many games and scored a few goals! Bloody typical, keeping that goal-machine Snip out and that man-mountain of a CB Wisdom on the bench? Is that what you mean? ?

    Edit: oh and potentially playing for a contract, just like Wisdom & Snip?

    I don’t think either Waghorn or Wisdom have been bothered about another contract at Derby.I think they realised as soon as Rooney said “these are my players”  (the January loans) their days were numbered.Others must have realised it too. I don’t think either will be missed .The loanees have not pulled any trees up though.We can only hope player recruitment is better in the future(permanent and loans).
